She finally spoke to a bereavement midwife on the afternoon of June 15 after contacting them herself.

Tammy said: “They were clearly ashamed with how I had been treated.

“I was kicked to the curb.”

Tammy and mechanic Shaun - whose son was due to be born in October - are now struggling to deal with the traumatic miscarriage.

She added: “To me what they have done is despicable, I’m so angry and upset.

“To go through such a traumatic thing would have been horrible anyway.

“But the treatment I received made it even more horrendous.”

The Care Quality Commission rates maternity services at the hospital as “requiring improvement”.

A hospital spokesman confirmed the incident is being investigated.

Kathryn Halford, chief nurse at Barking, Havering and Redbridge University Hospitals NHS Trust, said: “We are very sorry to hear of Ms Anderson’s poor experience with us. We know what a difficult and painful time this is for all women and we aim to offer them as much support as we can.

“We’re investigating her case fully and have also invited her into our hospital so we can discuss what happened in more detail.

"Ms Anderson has so far not taken us up on this offer; however, we’d welcome the opportunity to meet with her.”
